The shop, which dates back to owner Sandra Lindsay's purchase of Foley's Pianos in 1967, moved across National Park Street in April to temporary digs in the former Spotlight building.
Ms Lindsay will move the store next year to Parry Street after buying the former Gamers Auctions building.
The old Musos Corner, Newcastle Leagues Club, Proski and ANZ branch in King Street are making way for GWH Group apartment towers.
The Spotlight site is also poised for a high-rise development by St Hillier's and The Spotlight Group.
At the other end of the same block, Newcastle firm Spartohori has now lodged plans for seven-storey offices on the West End Hotel site.
